Mayan

Did you know that Mayans invented the concept of zero? It might not seem like a big deal to come up with the notion of nothing, but that big, fat 0 eventually led to the idea of decimals and allowed later humans to discover little things like quantum physics and binary code. So, you could say that the Mayans help to lay the groundwork for the Computer Age. Mayans were also sophisticated astronomers and architects. They created the calendar which scared so many people back in 2012. Fortunately for us, the calendar was misinterpreted; the world didn't blow up. According to experts, it merely signified the end of one cycle and the beginning of another. We love their design sense and connection to nature.
